Recently, Pam Tillis and Lorrie Morgan sparked nostalgia on TikTok when they took the stage to perform the theme song of The Golden Girls: "Thank You for Being a Friend."

As their Grits and Glamour Tour continues across North America, Tillis and Morgan underscore the longevity of their careers and their multigenerational appeal.
